Compounding this, the original clutch fan draws inadequate static pressure through the condenser and core in modern stop-and-go traffic. In high-displacement configurations and early aluminum block designs like the \u003cstrong\u003eHT4100\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eL62\u003c\/strong\u003e V8-6-4, elevated operating temperatures rapidly lead to head gasket failure, warped decks, and transmission fluid breakdown due to heat-saturated stock end-tank coolers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed entirely from aircraft-grade aluminum, this drop-in cooling upgrade features a high-density, furnace-brazed dual-row tube-and-fin core that maximizes heat rejection area. Hand-welded TIG end tanks eliminate weak crimped seals and cracked factory plastic. The package integrates an all-aluminum electric fan shroud engineered to focus high-velocity airflow across the full face of the core, paired with a heavy-duty internal automatic transmission oil cooler to protect vital drivetrain fluid temperatures under continuous load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e1972-1982 Cadillac Eldorado\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e4.1L, 5.7L, 6.0L (\u003cstrong\u003eHT4100\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eOlds 350\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eL62\u003c\/strong\u003e) \/ GM \u003cstrong\u003eE-body\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e125-170 hp \/ 190-270 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCC161\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eMC161\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eDPI161\u003c\/strong\u003e, 161, \u003cstrong\u003eCU161\u003c\/strong\u003e, 3023837, 3025223, 52453863\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1972-1978 Cadillac Eldorado (5.7L V8 Gas\/Diesel conversions \u0026amp; early E-body FWD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1979-1980 Cadillac Eldorado 5.7L 350 cu in EFI V8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1980-1981 Cadillac Eldorado 6.0L 368 cu in L62 V8-6-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1982 Cadillac Eldorado 4.1L 252 cu in V6 \/ 4.1L HT4100 V8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fit the E-body Eldorado?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Yes, this is a direct fit for the 1972-1982 Cadillac Eldorado equipped with the \u003cstrong\u003eHT4100\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eOlds 350\u003c\/strong\u003e, or \u003cstrong\u003eL62\u003c\/strong\u003e engine configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this unit feature integrated transmission cooling?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Yes, it includes internal transmission fluid cooler ports threaded to connect directly to factory hard lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Cadillac Touring Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for high-mileage grand tourers, this cooling unit restores steady operating temperatures and maintains internal component longevity, guaranteeing your classic Eldorado cruises smoothly without fluid degradation or thermal stress.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50593889485048,"sku":"DS-EH38SA3WT","price":320.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-with-shroud-for-cadillac-eldorado-1972-1982-4-1l-5-7l-6-0l-1.jpg?v=1790052594","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/performance-radiator-with-shroud-for-cadillac-eldorado-1972-1982-4-1l-5-7l-6-0l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
